romney won strong among both. one thing we haven't talked about enough is romney's pitch, which pollsters asked which do you think is the best experienced to be president? a business background or a background in government? and by a big margin people -- >> two to one. >> people said business. look back at the list, we haven't won a lot of business people president but that's romney's pitch and it won tonight in michigan. >> it seemed like rick santorum was aiming toward ohio with his speech tonight and trying to get that message out to ohio, someplace that his campaign thinks he will do well there as well. is that what you heard, you know, holding up the shale, making the pitch on energy, a blue collar pitch that he has had on the trail? >> sure. and i think we've heard this since new hampshire when he gave a very nice speech, even though it was a concession, where he talked about his grandfather as a coal minor. now he's again working toward, i think, gal van nicing the blue-collar vote. what i see is basically

mitt romney and i both grew up in the heartland, and we know what places like wisconsin and michigan look like when times are good. [applause] when people are working, when families are doing more than just getting by. and we know it can be that way again. we have had very different careers, mainly in public service, his mostly in the private sector. he helped turn around failing businesses and start businesses. being successful in business, that is a good thing. [applause] mitt romney has not only succeeded but he has succeeded where others could not. he turned around the olympics at a time when a great institution was collapsing under the weight of bad management. and over spending and corruption. sounds kind of familiar, doesn't it? he was a republican governor of a state where almost nine in 10 legislators are democrats and yet he balanced the budget without raising taxes. unemployment went down. household incomes went up. massachusetts saw its credit rating upgrade.
